Collins Chips Up

Level 7 : 100/200, 25 ante

With the board already showing {j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} Phil Collins (the poker player, not the singer) and another player were already all in. The all-in player held the {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} but couldn't best Collins' {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}. The other player was sent packing while Collins stack increased to 14,200.
